Does anyone have any suggestions for a good vidoe editing software for windows? I have tried Premiere but for some reason it will not read the AVI files that I took off my Canon.
Thanks

are you using a still camera to record video?

I have the SD400, it take pretty good movie clips... it even has a 60fps function. Anyway, I just copy them over from the SD chip to my hard drive. When I try to load them in Premiere it tells me that there was an unsupported compression routine or something. The clips are fine, and play in media player ok.

You're not going to find much for the windows platform, sorry.

when still cameras record video it compresses them in a weird format so thats your problem. You probably won't be able to use them except with whatever came with the camera.

I think I have narrowed it down to:
CyberLink PowerDirector
Canopus EDIUS
Pinnacle Studio Plus
Any comments on these?
Thanks
